the series was wrong. so I him why? he said I have written one extra ‘one’, there should be only one ‘one’.
Lol!! I was like ‘no Sir, there are always two one’s in Fibonacci Series’. So, ultimately I explained the whole Fibonacci Series to him to make him understand how it progresses. But I am happy that he at least knew the underlying concept of Fibonacci Series.
